Content, Context & Connectivity Persuasive Interplay

Content

Part of the complexity of the Kaj Munk Case relates to the complexity of content. The relevant content is not only multifaceted in its nature. Ideally it should also be presented in different mediations in order to facilitate reception in coherence with the original mediation. Munks’s works consist of novels and newspaper articles. These are quite unproblematic to display in a digitalized text-version. This is also the case with the comprehensive photo material documenting aspects of Munk’s life. These pictures may be presented in a digital resolution that even facilitates enhanced image quality through enlargement. This content is currently being digitalized, stored, and indexed at the Kaj Munk Research Center.

Part of the content is, however, not originally designed primarily for a print medium. This is the case for Munk’s plays that are originally designed for the living theatre – though obviously scripts were soon printed. Another category of such content is the sermons of Kaj Munk. Most of these are authored exclusively for the pulpit though a minority are characterized by being edited for print and publishing.
